I have to eat under a thousand calories per day to not gain weight. Today I ate a third cup of quinoa with a ninth quart of oysters (330 calories, 38 grams protein), a cup of green beans (30 calories), a cup of coffee with chocolate powder (10 calories), some zero-calorie soft drink, and for dessert 10 wheat saltine crackers (110 calories). Then I had about 3 jiggers of rum with no-calorie coke (210 calories), but who's counting. Got myself at 160 pounds and holding steady. (pats self on back, feels pain in shoulder)
::BUMP:: I've started a new program modeled after the golden era of bodybuilding. Heavy and hard. I've tried a lot of pre-workout supps and not one has really worked. The one I'm trying now is called EPO Blast: LINK
I don't remember if I posted it in here, but at my heaviest I was 285 pounds. I'm now at 200 pounds, which with me being 6'2" with a big frame is pretty good. My long break from the forum and the internet in general contributed to that. Mostly just cut back on portions of food and played basketball as much as I could. Feels amazing.
The best mixer to drown out the taste of alcohol is chocolate Muscle Milk or one of its competitors. Every 8 hours all day you should have 2 glasses, each with 3 jiggers of vodka, bourbon, or your choice (rum tastes best). You will exceed the recommended daily allowance of protein, girlfriends, and hair on your chest.
The potency of the steroids back then weren't what they are today. Many guys today have that cartoon-ish look from all the synthol they take. Arnold was notorious for the amount of volume he lifted. He'd lift for 8 hours a day. Guys today don't nearly as much volume and spend all their time eating ridiculous amounts.
Best preworkout I've taken is White Flood. Its the most reasonably priced, too. 100 servings for $40. Can't beat that. Its been my go to for a year.
Haha, Arnold never came close to looking like the guys today. Arnold was all about symmetry. He competed weighing 235lbs on a 6'2" frame. Modest compared to last years Mr. Olympia winner Phil Heath who was 5'9" and weighed 250lbs. Or, Jay Cutler who was 5'9" and had a competition weight 275lbs.
Oldschool bodybuilding looks a lot better. The HGH build is flat out ugly. You have a keg/gut but at the same time you have defined abs.
Nope. My brother and some friends have though. So I have decent enough knowledge about it. If your looking for a quick fix and don't want to bust your ass at the gym, its not the route. If your going to do it a strict lifestyle is important. The most extreme I've ever gone is OTC testosterone boosters that you can order at BB.com and such.
White Flood is definitely up there for me. Craze though is amazing and I recommend it if you haven't tried it. An absolutely insane focus/energy/endurance. The first time I took it I lifted for nearly 3 hours and could have kept going...the crazy (no pun intended) thing is is that there is absolutely no crash whatsoever and it actually acts as a a relatively decent appetite suppressant. For me PWO would definitely go: 1) Craze 2) White Flood 3) MP Assault
Nice choice in preworkouts. But, I gotta ask, whats the point in lifting for 3 hours. Counter productive unless your on steroids.
It's definitely not a common occurrence, but it was a weekend and I literally felt like a machine. At one point I looked up at the clock during my workout and it had already been 2 hours. Do you guys order most your supplements from BB.com? I've found that they have the best prices, but I've also ordered from Nutraplanet.
